Another Interesting Letter from Mrs. R. S. Brouse, Depicting Travel in China. Shanghai, China, Sept. 10. One thing that has impressed more of us probably than the sights of these wonderful, old-time countries is the large number of men and women we have met everywhere who are graduates of American colleges. A Mrs. Fugui, who acted as interpreter for us at a dinner given at the Shingi club is a graduate of Smith College. In our preliminary travels through Japan we were elaborately entertain- ed in every city we visited. We left Keota just two hours be- fore the congressional delegation ar- rived and all of us were sorry we missed them. Our trip took us through Korea, which is evidently a very interesting country. To us it look- ed as if it were located on top of a vol- cano. The feeling between the Koreans and Japanese is still somewhat unset- tled, and so far as we had occasion to judge, not very friendly. We were hurried through Korea owing to the prevalence of cholera in that country, and naturally we had no inclination to stop. In fact many of the towns were under quarantine. China is undoubtedly a country of magnificent distances. It was a twen- ty-eight hour ride from Seoul to Muk- den. The latter city is a strange mix- ture of Chinese, Russians, Americans, British, and most every other nation- ality. The new part of the city is very modern in every respect, with fine, large, up-to-date buildings. A number of us took a long rickshaw ride through the old part of the city and were very much surprised to run across Bostock’s wild animal show on exhibition there. The train service in China is very good. We had a better sleeping car on our trip through this country than any I have ever been in in the States. The most of the locomotives in use on the railroads in the Orient are Amer- ican built. From Mukden we went to Pekin, another long ride of more than eight hundred miles. One glimpse of that city and many of us decided that we would like to stay there. Some of us went on a trip to the Great Wall. It took two days, going and returning, and while there we climbed up three thousand eight hundred feet to the watch towers. While there we watch- ed a camel train coming in from Mon- golia, just as they have done for hun- dreds and thousands of years. At Nanku we stayed in a small hotel which is surrounded by a high wall, with soldiers on patrol all the time. There is quite a large barracks at Nanku, and quite a number of skir- mishes have occurred there the past few weeks. After spending the night at Nanku we left in the morning for the Ming tombs. We were carried in sedan chairs, four men to a chair. The dis- tance is twenty miles, so you can im- agine it was some trip. The tombs were built by the Emperors and there are thirteen of them. They are over seven hundred years old, but that seems modern to some temples we have seen which date back to many wears B. C. We reached Shanghai yesterday and received our first mail from home. From Pekin to Shanghai is over one thousand miles and we passed through the provinces where the famine is now raging. We saw beggars every- where, and were literally stripped of all our spare cash. Just over the Yellow river the countryside was flooded and we saw hundreds of people working in the water up to their knees trying to save their rice. They had built high racks on which they were piling it up to dry. Last Saturday we went out to visit the Emperor's summer palace and on our way home were invited to a lunch- eon at the home of Prof. and Mrs. Malone. The professor is one of the teachers in the Indemnity college built by the United States. It is a beautiful place and the buildings are big and substantial. We could not stay late as the city gates are closed at 6:30 p. m. i On Sunday we went to church at ! the Presbyterian mission, built since i the Boxer uprising. The old mission | was destroyed at that time and a | number of the inmates killed. They have a2 splendid boys’ school with 1200 pupils and one for girls with 200 in attendance. A good hospital is also attached to the mission which is surrounded by a high wall. Cook’s representative has just been here and informed us that there is some doubt as to our getting to Ma- nilla, as there has been a heavy ty- phoon there which caused great dis- aster, and it may not be wise to make the trip. The missionaries have just come to take us to a reception so will have to close. Altoona Citizen Killed in Airplane. Earl H. Fluke, of Altoona, was in- stantly killed in an airplane accident near that city Monday afternoon, when the machine in which he had taken passage to Pittsburgh fell to and was badly wrecked. During the past several weeks two Curtis J N-4 planes have been in Altoona and vi- cinity giving exhibition flights and taking up passengers. Having filled | all engagements they were scheduled {to return to Pittsburgh on Monday. Mr. Fluke arranged to accompany pi- lot Elmer Schleifer as a passenger to the Smoky city. The first plane to leave had some difficulty attaining a sufficient height to cross the moun- tains owing to a high wind. Pilot Schleifer delayed his departure until 3:45 o'clock when the wind had fallen somewhat. When he finally did take off he got up only 150 feet when his ed to turn to the left in order to vol- plane to the ground but just at that moment a hard puff of wind caught the plane under the right wing and the pilot tried valiantly to right it the distance to the ground was so short that he failed in his efforts and the plane nosed to earth in a field on the Dr. W. Frank Beck farm. Fluke was strapped in front of the pilot in the ground his strap broke and he was hurled forward, his neck, jaw, nose and both arms being broken and one side crushed. Pilot Schleifer was not seriously injured and was able to crawl out of the cockpit and not only pull Fluke from the wrecked machine but dragged him two hundred yards to the road from where a passing au- tomobile took him to the Altoona hos- pital but life was extinct. Fluke was 27 years old, a veteran of the world railroad company. Answers to Health Questions. Question 1—How may persons be protected against smallpox? Answer—By vaccination. Question 2—What evidence of vac- cination of children must teachers have? Answer—A certificate signed by a physician. Question 3—Upon what authority may a child be excused from vaccina- tion? Answer—Upon presentation of a certificate, signed by the county med- ical director or some one deputized by him, (in municipalities by the medical representative of the health authori- ty) setting forth the fact that the child is physically unfitted for vacci- nation. Such certificate is good for one year. The subject of the next lesson is “Sneezes.” Coughing and sneezing, especially in street cars, motion pic- ture houses and at public gatherings are often the cause of the spread of disease. His Turtle. About four o'clock Wednesday afternoon E. W. Roberts, of Tunkhan- nock, a traveling salesman, was mo- toring along the state highway about one mile east of Penn Hall. At that point George Rhoads & Sons are building a new concrete bridge. It is located at the bottom of a short hill and Roberts approaching at a good speed did not notice the danger sig- nals until he was dangerously near the open bridge. His brakes refused to hold and when it seemed that he would dash into the stream he turned the car suddenly striking a telephone pole with a crash that wrecked the steering gear and front axle. The car, a small Jackson runabout, turned clear over, pinning the driver under it. The Rhoads men ran to the rescue at once. When they had lifted the car off Roberts he was lying in the road, but gathered himself together in an instant and jumped up apparently without any injury whatever. Unhurt After Auto Turned Poultry Culling. During the week of September 21- 24th the Centre county Farm Bureau conducted nineteen poultry culling demonstrations, widely distributed so as to cover the more important poul- try producing sections of the county. Two hundred and forty-three persons attended these demonstrations. Eight flocks, a total of 996 hens, were culled. 492 of these were thrown out as poor producers and not laying at present. Records were kept of these flocks one week before and one week after cull- ing. Reports have been received from four flocks. The 235 poor hens taken from these four flocks laid a total of three eggs during the week after cull- ing. This goes to show that the methods used in culling are practical; and they are simple enough that any person with a little practice, such as is given at one of these demonstrations, can cull poultry very satisfactorily. the ground from a height of 150 feet | motor went dead.

Grenoble passed away at the Belle- fonte hospital on Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock, as the result of tubercu- lar peritonitis. She was a daughter of John L. and Nancy Shuey Grenoble . and was born in Haines township for- ty-three years ago. Bellefonte about twenty years ago and fourteen years ago went to the home of C. T. Gerberich. About three years ' ago her mother suffered a stroke and she left the Gerberich home and returned home, and for two years gave all her time and attention to tak- ing care of her mother until she pass- . ed away about a year ago. Shortly . thereafter Miss Grenoble returned to ' Bellefonte and resumed her old posi- : tion in the Gerberich home. + ly she was taken ill and was taken to the Bellefonte hospital for an opera- , tion. | death. It is thought that her injury | was sustained by constantly lifting { her mother, who was entirely helpless. { She was a faithful member of the | Reformed church and had many friends in Bellefonte who showed her every kindness during her long illness. And of these none were more devoted in their solicitude for her welfare than were Mr. Gerberich and son Har- ry. But all the kindness that could be showered upon her could not stay the progress of the dread disease and she | finally passed away.

A radical change made by the Cen- : tre county W. C. T. U. convention changes the time of paying annual dues to October. The annual dues were increased to one dollar, which in- cludes a year’s subscription to the State paper, the Pennsylvania W. C. T. U. Bulletin. To give every member an opportunity to pay the. dues this. month an attractive autumn “Dues Social” will be held in the W. C. T. U. rooms, Petrikin hall, on Friday even- ing, October 29th, from 8 to 10 o'clock. Ice cream and cake will be served free, late news from the State convention given and a general good ' time enjoyed. Autumn leaves will be freely used with hydrangeas to lend pleasing effects to the decorations of the room. All members are most cor- dially invited and urged to be present. If unable to attend please send dues to Mrs. L. H. Gettig, treasurer, east Bishop street, Bellefonte. reer lp em ree $250.00 Reward Offered. The Pennsylvania Department of Forestry will pay a reward of $250.00 for information leading to the arrest ! and conviction of any person or per- sons setting incendiary forest fires in this State, according to a statement issued by Gifford Pinchot, the chief ! forester. He has notified all of the forest fire wardens to that effect, and hundreds of posters announcing the reward will be distributed through the State forests by foresters and forest rangers. The Department of Forestry has collected $811.82 from individuals and corporations responsible for starting forest fires during 1920. The amount represents the cost to the State of . putting out the fires, but it does not take into account damage to young timber and soil. Bishop Quayle at State College. Bishop William A. Quayle will lec- ture in St. Paul’s Methodist Episcopal church, State College, tomorrow (Sat- urday) evening, on “Rip Van Winkle.” He will also preach in the church on Sunday morning and evening.

S. of A. Initiations at Centre ! Hall. The Patriotic Order Sons of Amer- ica of Pennsvalley had a red letter af- fair last Thursday evening when the degree team from Lemont camp, thir- ty-four strong, and led by degree master James Schreck, conferred the degree upon a class of nineteen new members in the Centre Hall camp. The officiating visitors did very effi- cient work and for a small place the size of Lemont the camp there has surely put that town on the map. And i it might here be mentioned that the Centre Hall camp can also lay claim to being among the real live ones. In addition to the class of nineteen new members initiated last Thursday evening six more have been elected to membership, making a total roll of over 130 members. Included in the list of visitors from other camps last Thursday evening were the following: A. F. Reigel, Sa- lona; Ed Zerby, Spring Mills; Andrew Musser, Aaronsburg; Joseph Haney, E. F.
